iOS users will be able to install apps from third-party sources
Apple will allow users of iOS devices to download applications from any source.
Confirmation of the company's efforts to implement the possibility of installing third-party applications on iOS devices was discovered by researchers in the iOS 17 code.2. In particular, a new Managed App Distribution framework has appeared — a ready-made set of tools that helps a developer quickly create a product. This programming interface has an extension endpoint. This means that other applications will be able to create extensions of this type.
Another innovation of the system is that it allows third-party applications to install applications. That is, developers will be able to create their own app stores.
Recall that now users of the iOS operating system can install applications only from the App Store, which is Apple's digital content store. Last year, the European Union adopted a Law on digital Markets, one of the requirements of which is to allow users to download applications from any source.
